College Football Week 5 Same Game Parlays Picks & Predictions: Oklahoma State vs. Baylor
Oklahoma State vs. Baylor
- Leg 1: Baylor -2.5 (-110)
- Leg 2: Blake Shapen Over 217.5 passing yards (-114)
- Leg 3: Under 56.5 total points (-110)
Staying with the conference championship trend, Oklahoma State and Baylor will meet for the first time after last year’s Big 12 championship with one of the most exciting endings of the 2021 season.
The Baylor defense has carried over their dominance in 2021, as they’re allowing under three yards per carry and are 24th allowing just over 305 total yards per game. Although they lost their top three running backs from last year, they’ve still been able to move the ball on the ground averaging 4.8 yards per rush, but going against an OK State run defense that’s allowing 3.1 yards per carry.
The Bears made Blake Shapen their starter for games like these. He will be relied on to move the ball, and he’s done well this year with controlling the offense and preventing turnovers. Baylor could find themselves in third and long situations, and having a dependable passer will be critical.
In ten games not against Baylor last year, Spencer Sanders threw for 15 touchdowns and five interceptions, he would finish the season with 16 TDs and 12 INTs. That Baylor defensive line is good, probably even better than last year, and is, by far, the best defense Sanders has seen this year.
You can’t ignore that Oklahoma State hasn’t been tested this year, while Baylor nearly pulled off a win on the road against BYU. Having been in a high-intensity situation should play a part in a game like this.
